Post Up: Comeback Clips

Clippers storm back late to stun OKC, while Boston tops Blazers for 12th straight home win.

Chicago’s abysmal play continued as they allowed an opponent to score 100 points for the 15th straight game. Magic rookie Mario Hezonja scored a career-high 21 points as a starter, including this thunderous dunk:

Hornets 119 (32-28), 76ers 99 (8-53)

Kemba Walker scored 30 points to lead Charlotte, who head home for a seven-game home streak.

Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan combined for 63 points as Toronto recorded their 11th straight win at home. Rodney Hood left the game with what the Jazz are calling a “minor head injury.”

Pelicans 95 (23-36), Rockets 100 (30-31)

Houston made just 3-34 three-point attempts, but Patrick Beverley hit a three with 51 seconds left that eventually led to the win. Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry essentially conceded that New Orleans is destined for the Draft lottery after the disappointing loss.

Kobe Bryant played just 11 minutes and scored just 5 points before leaving the game in the first half with a sore right shoulder. Los Angeles also lost Jordan Clarkson in the second half after he injured his knee.

Thunder 98 (42-19), Clippers 103 (40-20)

Los Angeles trailed by as many as 22 points, but a 35-13 fourth quarter capped off a furious comeback win. DeAndre Jordan recorded a massive double-double of 20 points and 18 rebounds. No time to sulk for OKC, as they face the Warriors tomorrow.
